Time Is Precious!

I read this poem by Dr. John C. Maxwell in the book Today Matters and what a way to underscore the point that time is indeed precious. Read it and be blessed!

To know the value of one year -
ask the students who failed their final.


To know the value of one month -
ask the mother of a premature baby.


To know the value of one week -
ask the editor of a weekly magazine.


To know the value of one day -
ask the wage earner with six children.


To know the value of one hour -
ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.


To know the value of one minute -
ask the person who missed the plane.


To know the value of one second -
ask the person who survived the accident.


To know the value of one millisecond -
ask the Olympic silver medalist.

 —John Maxwell
